Comments on news posted 2012-11-19 10:31:42: Verizon has confirmed to Broadband Reports that the company's wireless networks will not be covered by the upcoming "six strikes" anti-piracy initiative. ..

Verizon has full control over VZW operations, Vodaphone is just along for the ride. Verizon's investment for VZW came from the wireline division, VZW is controlled by Verizon's management, and most of the profits from VZW go back to VZ. They may be a subsidiary on paper but for all intents and purposes they are the same company.

Can they even track it?

Verizon puts all of their 3G/LTE customers behind NAT now. Would they have the ability to comply with a *AA subpenoa/six-strikes request? There's no technical reason why they couldn't be tracking every single TCP/UDP conversation, it would require some fairly beefy hardware and a lot of storage space, but it could be done. The question is, do they bother?

Re: I will lay it all out for you....

Verizon has to wait till it has enough subscribers to it's home LTE services to lay the Hammer down on them. Lure them in, then give them the high hard one!

that was always what the plan was its been about 10+ year sin making lure you in screw you after you have a need ....i think we the people of the net should do a world wide strike and terrify them....ya know show them for a whole week we cna go without net....and if we can do one week....two...then a month then screw ISPS....
